Abstract This paper deals with modeling of the phenomenon of fretting fatigue in
heterogeneous materials using the multi-scale computational homogenization technique
and finite element analysis (FEA). The heterogeneous material for the specimens consists
of a single hole model (25% void/cell, 16% void/cell and 10% void/cell) and a four-hole
model (25% void/cell). Using a representative volume element (RVE), we try to produce
the equivalent homogenized properties and work on a homogeneous specimen for the
study of fretting fatigue. Next, the fretting fatigue contact problem is performed for 3 new
cases of models that consist of a homogeneous and a heterogeneous part (single… More >
